Disconnecting the Battery
To prevent a short circuit, be sure to turn off the ignition and remove the negative (-) battery cable prior to installation.
NOTE: If the VM9215BT is to be installed in a car equipped with an on-board drive or navigation computer, do not
disconnect the battery cable. If the cable is disconnected, the computer memory may be lost. Under these conditions, use
extra caution during installation to avoid causing a short circuit.
Pre-installation
1. Remove the four screws that attach the mounting sleeve to the
radio and remove the sleeve.
2. Install the mounting sleeve:
a. Install mounting sleeve into the dashboard or optional adapter.
Do not force the sleeve into the opening or cause it to bend
or bow.
b. Locate the series of bend-tabs along the top, bottom and sides
of the mounting sleeve. With the sleeve fully inserted into the
dashboard opening, bend as many of the tabs outward as
necessary so that the sleeve is firmly secured to the dashboard.
c. Install the support strap to make the unit more stable.
3. Place the radio in front of the dashboard opening so the wiring can
be brought through the mounting sleeve.

Wiring
WARNING! Only connect the unit to a 12-volt power supply with proper grounding.
Complete wiring as illustrated in the wiring diagram on page 4. Once the wiring is complete, reconnect the battery
negative terminal. If there is no ACC available, connect the ACC lead to the power supply with a switch.
NOTE: When replacing a fuse, be sure to use correct type and amperage to avoid damaging the radio. The VM9215BT
uses one 15 amp fuse, located in the black filter box in-line with the main wire harness.
Final Installation
After completing the wiring connections, turn the unit on to confirm
operation (ignition switch must be on). If unit does not operate,
recheck all wiring until the problem is corrected. Once proper
operation is achieved, turn off the ignition switch and proceed with
final mounting of the chassis.
1. Connect the wiring adapter to the existing wiring harness.
2. Connect the antenna lead.
3. Carefully slide the radio into the mounting sleeve, making sure it
is right-side-up, and secure with the original four screws.
4. Attach one end of the perforated support strap (supplied) to the
screw stud, which is screwed into the threaded insert on the back
of the unit, using the hex nut provided. Fasten the other end of
the perforated strap to a secure part of the dashboard either
above or below the radio using the screw and hex nut provided.
Bend the strap to position it as necessary.
5. Replace any items you removed from the dashboard.
ISO-DIN Installation

2. Remove the trim ring.
3. Mount the factory brackets on the new radio using the existing
screws from the old radio.

Wiring Diagram
IMPORTANT: Incorrect wiring connections can damage the unit. Follow the wiring instructions carefully, or have the
installation handled by an experienced technician.
For basic iPod® connectivity, you can use the white 30-pin to USB iPod® cable that came with your Apple device. For
iPod® video or photo playback, you must purchase the jLink-USB cable. Connect the iPod® cable to the rear chassis
iPod® inputs (USB / 3.5mm connectors) and route the iPod® cable to an accessible part of the dash area for easy
connectivity. For occasional iPod® use, keep an iPod® cable in your glove box and use it to connect the iPod® to the
front USB connector.
